PREFACE. 


The  author,  in  placing  this  little  book  before 
the  public,  feels  that  in  so  doing  he  adds  his 
mite  to  the  useful  and  timely  literiiture  of  the  day. 
The  ground  has  not  been  covered  before,  and  all 
travelers  in  the  Alaskan  Peninsula  will  appreciate 
to  its  fullest  extent  the  purpose  of  this  work. 

The  aborigines  of  this  far  away  country  have  no 
written  language,  and  this  work  aims  to  put  before 
the  traveler  or  trader  a  means  of  communication 
with  this  people  which  it  is  hoped  will  be  of  mutual 
benefit  to  both. 

Many  years  of  residence  in  this  country  and  t  bor- 
ough familiarity  with  its  people,  have,  we  believe, 
well  equipped  us  for  the  realization  of  our  task.
